Getting a new roof in Sacramento means your solar panels have to come off first. Revolving Power Solar handles the entire process so your system comes back online correctly, fully tested, and producing from day one.
You got quotes from three roofing contractors. You picked one. You signed the contract. Then someone mentioned the solar panels and everything got complicated.
Most roofing contractors in Sacramento will tell you they can handle the solar panels. Some of them mean it. Most of them mean they will disconnect the system, set the panels on the driveway, and reconnect everything when they are done without any understanding of how the system actually works. Sacramento homeowners who go this route often end up with a system that appears to be running but is producing a fraction of what it should, reversed polarity, disconnected strings, inverters that were never reconfigured after reinstallation.
Revolving Power Solar exists specifically to bridge that gap. We coordinate directly with your roofing contractor, handle the full solar panel removal before the roof work begins, store your equipment safely, and perform a complete solar system recommissioning once the new roof is in place. Your solar system comes back online the right way, tested, verified, and producing.
Reinstallation is only half the job. We reconfigure and recommission your inverter, verify all string connections, test production output against pre-removal numbers, and confirm your monitoring system is reporting correctly. Your Sacramento solar system comes back online fully tested and producing before we leave.
We safely disconnect and remove all solar panels, mounting hardware, and electrical components in the correct sequence. Panels are stored safely during the roof replacement to prevent damage. We coordinate directly with your roofing contractor on timing so the roof work can begin immediately after removal.
Once the new roof is complete we reinstall every panel in the correct position and orientation, reconnect all wiring in the correct sequence, and remount all hardware to manufacturer specifications on your new roof surface.
Call us as soon as you know your roof is being replaced. The earlier we are involved the smoother the coordination with your roofing contractor. We assess your system, document current condition, and give you a clear written quote for removal and reinstallation.
On the scheduled removal date we disconnect and remove your solar system completely. Your roofing contractor gets a clear roof to work on with no panels in the way and no liability for solar equipment on the job site.
We store your panels safely during the roof replacement. You do not have to worry about panels sitting on the driveway getting damaged or roofers working around equipment they do not understand.
Once your roofing contractor confirms the new roof is complete we schedule the reinstallation. Every panel goes back in the correct position, every connection is made correctly, and the full system is tested and verified before we leave.
This is the most common and most costly mistake Sacramento homeowners make during a roof replacement. Roofing contractors are not solar technicians. Disconnecting, removing, and reinstalling a solar system requires a licensed C10 electrical contractor and a working knowledge of inverter configuration, string wiring, and monitoring setup. A roofer who removes and reinstalls solar panels without this knowledge leaves Sacramento homeowners with systems that look operational but are not.
Solar panel removal and reinstallation is not plug and play. Every panel has to go back in the correct position and orientation. String wiring has to be reconnected in the correct sequence. The inverter has to be reconfigured and recommissioned. Monitoring has to be verified against pre-removal production numbers. Skip any of these steps and your Sacramento solar system will underperform indefinitely without ever triggering an obvious error.
If your solar panels come off the roof without a documented condition report and something gets damaged during the roof replacement there is no baseline to reference. Revolving Power Solar photographs and documents every panel, every connection, and every component before removal so you have a complete record of pre-removal system condition.
Solar panel removal needs to be scheduled and completed before the roofing crew arrives. Coordinating this as an afterthought the morning of the roof replacement creates scheduling chaos and puts pressure on everyone to rush. Sacramento homeowners who plan the solar removal in advance have a significantly smoother roof replacement experience.

Every system is different and cost varies based on the number of panels, system type, roof complexity, and storage requirements. We provide a clear written quote after assessing your system. The cost of professional removal and reinstallation is significantly less than the cost of months of lost production from a system that was not properly recommissioned.
Removal typically takes two to four hours depending on system size. Reinstallation and full recommissioning takes four to six hours. Most Sacramento homeowners can have their panels removed the day before roofing begins and reinstalled within one to two days of the roof being completed.
In California solar panel removal and reinstallation requires a licensed C10 electrical contractor and a C46 solar contractor. A roofing contractor without these licenses cannot legally perform this work. Beyond the licensing issue, roofing contractors who attempt solar removal and reinstallation without solar expertise frequently leave systems underperforming or incorrectly configured.
Our pre-removal documentation creates a clear baseline of panel condition before any roof work begins. If panels are damaged during the roof replacement we have the documentation to support an insurance or warranty claim. We assess all panels for damage during reinstallation and flag any issues before the system is recommissioned.
Yes. We coordinate directly with your roofing contractor on timing, site access, and scheduling. Sacramento homeowners do not have to manage the coordination between their roofer and their solar company, we handle that communication directly.
Yes, when reinstallation and recommissioning are done correctly. Our full recommissioning process verifies production output against pre-removal numbers before we leave. If production does not match pre-removal output we identify and resolve the cause before the job is considered complete.
Permit requirements vary by jurisdiction across Sacramento County, the City of Sacramento, Roseville, and surrounding communities. We assess permit requirements for your specific location as part of the initial consultation and manage any required permits as part of the job.
The earlier Revolving Power Solar is involved in your Sacramento roof replacement the smoother the entire process goes. We handle the removal, coordinate with your roofing contractor, and have your system back online and producing correctly once the new roof is complete.
